First and foremost I love the view from my apartment. It was the main reason we chose this particular apartment from all the others. We are only on the 6th Floor but as you can see from the pictures the view over the Albert Dock is amazing. It's like having a changing picture on the wall depending on time of day and season etc.

The location was also a deciding factor. We are officially in the Liverpool One complex of shops and restaurants but are very well insulated from noise.

The space

We have a private room with en suite facilities available for rent within our apartment. You will be renting the room and bathroom only but can access our kitchen and lounge, feel free to join us and chat.

If you're coming to Liverpool for business or pleasure we can make great recommendations about where to eat or what to see and how to get there. Natalie and I know Liverpool like the back of our hand so feel free to ask away.

The Location:

As you can see from our reviews our apartment is situated in the heart of the city, there are very few apartment blocks closer than ours. We are opposite the Albert Dock which houses the Echo Arena, we are next to the new Liverpool One shopping complex and are about 10 minutes walk from Lime Street station. We are approximately 15-20 minutes by bus from Liverpool John Lennon airport, 10 minute walk from Lime Street train station, 15 minute walk from Norton Street coach station.

The Room:

Please note that this is our home and as such you will be sharing the apartment with us as we do live there. The room is an en-suite double room which has great views out over the dock and wheel. Fresh bed linen and towels will be supplied. There is wardrobe and drawer space for you to drop your stuff. The bathroom has a walk in shower but there is also a family bathroom should you wish to take a soak in the bath.

The open plan kitchen and lounge has amazing views of the waterfront and Albert Dock. Feel free to sit and relax, watch tv or a dvd, play a few games on the wii or sit and read a book, it's up to you. Help yourself to free tea and coffee, there's always cold water in the fridge should you need it. Feel free to use the kitchen to prepare a meal or snack, all we ask is that you load the dishwasher when you've finished as this is Natalies chore and she hates loading the dishwasher!

Amenities:

We now have unlimited free wifi, just ask us for the password. We have a washer and dryer and would be happy to show you how to use it.

We have stated noon for check out but we can be flexible depending on whether we have guests arriving or leaving. Please contact us with any special requests.

Any other questions or requests please just ask!

Guest access

Guests will have access to their own room with private en suite, kitchen, lounge and laundry room

Interaction with guests

We love to sit and chat with our guests or equally let them get about their business. We do live in the apartment so are available if you want to know anything or ask for recommendations of what to see or do or where to eat.

Other things to note

Once again it is our family home and we do live there so you would be sharing the apartment with us if you decided to stay.

Joanne was a wonderful host. We enjoyed our stay so much!! She went above and beyond to help us out. We were new to Liverpool and the UK and I don't know how we could have managed without her help the first day we got there. Her place has the most amazing view!!! It was centrally located. The bed was comfortable, the attached bathroom was great! Within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. I would gladly recommend her place to my best friends, and would love to visit again!!! Thank you Joanne for being a great host!!!

Jo really is the amazing host that the reviews claim her to be. She was very hospitable from the start, making sure we had detailed instructions for finding her place and suggestions for what to do in the city. She even offered to pick us up from where we dropped off our rental car. Her apartment is clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location. It was easy for us to walk to all the tourist attractions plus restaurants and night life. Both Jo and Natalie are easy going people which is important when staying in someone else's space. We never felt unwelcome.

Pleasant, welcoming lady who provided the most comprehensive list of information for Liverpool that a guest could want. The view from the room was fantastic and just across from the Albert Docks venue. Bless "Jo" who even did a load of our laundry while we were at dinner! There was a selection of things to eat for a continental breakfast even though we had no time. Bless you Jo.

Response from Joanne:

Rita, I hope you and Ramone enjoyed the rest of your trip and that you have a well deserved rest from all that travelling.

Joanne's apartment exceeded expectations, it is very central with a fabulous view of Albert Dock. The apartment itself was very quiet and i slept like a log! It is a beautiful apartment and I would thoroughly recommend it.

Jo is a very nice, friendly host. She picked us up at the train station and let us stored our suitcases at her place past the check out time! Her apartment is very clean and tidy. The location is perfect for walking around. Totally recommend to stay at her place.

Myself and 14 year old daughter have travelled around the world together in the last few years and are now looking forward to our trip of a lifetime which will include 3 months off from life.
We've never travelled West so I think that may be on our agenda next. We had never stayed in peoples homes before but thought it would be a fun way to get to know the area and all the secret hideouts and the best places to eat. We have stayed in a few airbnb properties now so we think we know what works but if you think we could improve/change we'd certainly like to hear from you.
My daughter and I do live in the apartment so the lounge and kitchen will be shared with us but please feel free to come in, take your shoes off and relax with us. Your bedroom and en suite bathroom is your own private space.
We have now successfuly hosted a few times for airbnb guests and have met some lovely people.
